Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for testing a message station, which can optionally be placed in a test state or in an operating state, after which a message is fed in duplex mode over a two-wire line to another message station, after which a simulated signal is obtained and in the operating state with the received signal is compared and a comparison signal is obtained and then the comparison signal is compared with a constant reference signal and a control signal is obtained, with the aid of which the simulated signal is automatically adjusted in such a way that the transmitted message does not have a disruptive effect in the receiver of its own news station.
  • Checking a news station - for example by inserting a test loop in the area of this news station - is particularly useful if as many components of this news station are checked. The greater the proportion of those parts of the news sta tion that are not detected during the test, the greater the probability that a defect will not be recognized.
  • the invention is based on the object of specifying a method which enables as many parts of a message station as possible to be checked.
  • the object is achieved in that the simulated signal is compared to the message instead of the comparison signal in the test state and that the simulated signal is automatically adjusted with the control signal obtained in such a way that the one sent by the own station with the receiver of the own station Message is received.
  • the method according to the invention is characterized in that it enables the testing of all essential parts of the message station, in particular the testing of those parts with the aid of which the simulated signal is obtained and readjusted.
  • the method is also distinguished by the fact that it can be implemented with a practically negligible little technical outlay.
  • the difference between the simulated signal and the received signal is signaled with the comparison signal, then it is expedient that the supply of the received signal is prevented in the test state, so that the simulated signal is equal to the comparison signal. In this way, the function of a comparator, with the aid of which the comparison signal is obtained, is also checked.
  • a simulation circuit Arrangement which is supplied with the message and which emits the simulated signal, that a comparator is provided which, in the operating state, generates the comparison signal in dependence on the simulated signal and in dependence on the received signal, that a discriminator is provided which has its output emits the control signal which signals the difference between those signals which are present at its first input or at its second input, that a first switch is provided which, in the operating state, assumes a first switch position in which the constant reference signal is fed to the first input of the discriminator is, and in the test state assumes a second switch position, in which the message is fed to the first input of the discriminator that a second switch is provided, which in the operating state assumes a first switch position, via which the comparison signal is fed to the second input of the discriminator and the assumes a second switch position in the test state, in which the simulated signal is fed to the second input of the discriminator.
  • FIGS. 1 to 10 Exemplary embodiments of the invention are explained below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 10, the same objects shown in several figures being identified by the same reference numerals.
  • the message source NQ emits the message n to be transmitted.
  • the simulated signal ns is obtained with the aid of the simulation circuit arrangement NA.
  • the simulated signal ns and the received signal are compared with one another in the comparator VGL and the comparison signal vs is obtained. In particular, the difference between the simulated signal ns and the received signal it can be formed with the aid of the comparator VGL.
  • the comparison signal vs and a constant reference signal rf are compared with one another and a control signal rs is derived, with the aid of which the simulated signal ns is automatically set such that the transmitted message n does not have a disruptive effect in the receiver EM 1 shown in Fig. 1.
  • the message n can be digital and in particular binary. However, it can also be an analog message, for example a voice signal.
  • Fig. 2 shows the test status of the message station.
  • the simulated signal ns is therefore compared with the message n instead of the comparison signal vs shown in FIG. 1 in the discriminator DIS.
  • the control signal rs obtained in this way, the simulated signal ns is automatically set such that with the Emp catcher EM of the own station the message n sent by this own station is received.
  • the message sent by another station not shown, is received with the receiver EM, according to Eq. 2 receive the message n from its own station during the duration of the test state.
  • Figures 3 and 4 show circuit arrangements for implementing the test method in a basic representation.
  • the transmitter SE consists of the voltage source SP and the internal resistance Ri. With the aid of the transmitter SE, both amplification and line adaptation can be carried out.
  • the simulation circuit arrangement NA can basically emit either a digital or an analog simulated signal ns on a case-by-case basis.
  • the control signal rs is generally digital if the simulation circuit arrangement NA also works digitally. If the simulation circuit arrangement NA operates in an analog manner, the control signal rs can be either analog or digital.
  • the discriminator DIS is used to determine the difference between those signals which are present at inputs a and b.
  • a summator is generally provided as the comparator VGL, with the aid of which the difference between the simulated signal ns and the received signal is es-determined.
  • the sum of the simulated signal ns and the received signal it should be equal to 0 in terms of data signals. If this is the case, then the transmitted message n has no disruptive effect in the receiver EM of the own message station shown in FIG. 3.
  • the two switches SW1 and SW2 assume the fully drawn switch positions, designated by the reference number 1, for the duration of the normal operating state are not. During the duration of the test state, the two switches are brought into their second switch positions, shown in dashed lines and designated by the reference symbol 0.
  • a constant reference signal rf is fed to the input a of the discriminator DIS via the circuit point P1.
  • the input b of the discriminator receives the comparison signal vs.
  • the control signal rs signals the difference between the signals supplied to the discriminator at the beginning and automatically adjusts the simulation circuit arrangement NA in such a way that the cheapest simulated signal ns results. However, this simulated signal ns is only effective in the comparator VGL during the duration of the operating state.
  • the message a is fed to the input a of the discriminator DIS via the circuit points P3, P2 and via the switch SW1.
  • the input b of the discriminator receives the simulated signal ns via the switch SW2.
  • the difference between the message signal n and the simulated signal ns is now determined and the corresponding control signal rs is supplied to the simulation circuit arrangement NA. If the message source NQ, the transmitter SE, the simulation circuit arrangement NA, the discriminator DIS, the receiver EM and the associated connecting lines are in order, then the message n is received in the receiver EM during the test state.
  • the receiver EM is thus used in addition to its other function during the test state to test the message statics.
  • circuit point P2 is connected to the connection point P3 of the voltage source SP and the internal resistance Ri.
  • circuit Arrangements can be arranged between the message source NQ and the point P3 further networks, not shown in FIG. 3.
  • point P2 it would be conceivable to connect point P2 to any other point located between the message source NQ and the connection point P3.
  • the connection shown between the two points P2 and P3 has the advantage that the function of the transmitter SE is also checked.
  • the circuit arrangement shown in FIG. 4 differs from the circuit arrangement shown in FIG. 3 only in the somewhat different arrangement of the switch SW2. It is assumed that a summator is provided as the comparator VGL, with the aid of which the difference between the signals ns supplied at the beginning and it is determined. If, in the test state, the switch SW2 shown in FIG. 4 assumes its switch position shown in dashed lines, the supply of the received signal to the comparator VGL is prevented. If the received signal is not supplied, however, the comparison signal is the same as the simulated signal ns supplied at the beginning. 4, the simulated signal ns is also fed to the input b of the discriminator DIS, as already described with reference to FIG. 3.
  • the circuit arrangement shown in FIG. 4 is characterized in that the function of the comparator VGL is also checked, in addition to the functions of the other parts of the message station.
  • a summator is provided as a comparator, then this can either cause an addition or a subtraction of the two signals ns supplied at the beginning or it can effect it. Depending on the polarity of these signals, the difference between the two signals should be determined in each case.
  • the shown in Figures 3 and 4 EM receivers can work either digitally or analogously, depending on whether they are supplied with digital or analog signals.
  • the switches SW1 and SW2 can be implemented with the aid of relays, with the aid of push buttons or with the aid of semiconductor switches, in particular with the aid of FET semiconductor components. In general, it is expedient to operate these two switches in a coupled manner so that they act like a double switch and, when actuated, either both assume the switch position shown in full or both assume the switch position shown in broken lines.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 show block diagrams of news stations, the components of which work predominantly digitally. It can therefore be assumed that the message source NQ emits a digital signal to a digitally operating simulation circuit arrangement NA. This simulation circuit arrangement emits a digital simulated signal ns / d and is controlled with a digital control signal rs / d. The discriminator DIS and the receiver EM also receive digital signals at the beginning.
  • an analog signal is derived from the message n.
  • the digital / analog converter D / A is therefore required in order to have a digital signal available at node P2. In this case it would be easier to interrupt the conductive connection of the points P2 and P3 via the digital / analog converter and to connect the points P2 and P4 directly to one another in a conductive manner.
  • the analog / digital converter A / D is required to generate the digital received signal es / d.
  • Figures 7 and 8 relate to circuit arrangements that work predominantly analog.
  • a digital message n is again required, but this is converted into an analog signal using the pulse shaper IF.
  • the simulation circuit arrangement NA works analogously and emits the analog simulated signal ns / a.
  • the received signal is fed to the receiving amplifier EV, via the output of which an analog signal is again emitted.
  • Two analog signals are thus present at the two inputs of the comparator VGL and an analog comparator VGL is required.
  • Analog signals are also supplied to the receiver EM and the discriminator DIS.
  • the control signal rs emitted by the discriminator could in principle either be a digital signal or an analog signal. It would be conceivable for a further discriminator DIS2, which responds to two or more threshold values, to be connected between the comparator VGL and the receiver EZ4, whereas the discriminator DIS responds only to a single threshold value.
  • FIGS 7 and 8 differ only in the different arrangement of the switches SW2.
  • FIGS. 9 and 10 show block diagrams of news stations, the components of which work partly digitally and partly analog. These two circuit arrangements are characterized by particularly low technical complexity.
  • a digital message n is again required and a digitally operating replica circuit arrangement NA.
  • the digital simulated signal ns / d is converted with the help of the digital / analog converter D / A into an analog simulated signal ns / a. Since the received Si gnal it is again an analog signal and an analog signal is also output via the output of the receiving amplifier ev, two analog signals are compared with each other in the comparator VGL and an analog comparison signal is output at the input b of the discriminator DIS.
